Missional Reading List – Top 40

Following is an updated list of MY top 40 books to best provide a thorough understanding of the missional church conversation, along with practical guidance on how to engage God’s mission more fully. The list is not comprehensive. I realize I have left out some of your favorites, and there are no doubt many other great books, but these are MY favorites and/or most helpful. And if you are interested by what I mean when I use the word missional check out this four part series here: Part One, Part Two, Part Three, and Part Four.
